Dan Shauver is correct but left out the most important part, how to
do this right :-).  I'm not 100% certain what you were trying to do
(why did you have that '.' on the end?), but on the assumption you were
trying to restore /etc/autorpm.d, it would be:

  amrestore -p /dev/st0 ray hda8 | tar xvf - /etc/autorpm.d

The key is to give '-' as the file for tar to read so it processes the
pipe input.
